I´we sen alot of ShellExecute tutorials but thay arent that good, there is stuff thats missing.
|
| |
This is my first tutorial so dont get upset if its no good, just post a coment and ill fix it.
ShellExecute(0,'open',PChar(prog),pchar(params),'',SW_SHOWNORMAL);
1 (ShellExecute) Thats a ShellAPI command and therefore you need to add ShellAPI to Uses
2 (The first "PChar" command) Betven the brakets you add Dir+FileName like so : c:\dir\file.exe
3 (The second "PChar" command) Add parameters to it like hl.exe´s : -console -game ns
Now thats more stable and is compateble with stuff like : edit1.text + '\hl.exe'
Im uploading my updated verson of Jason´s apis.pas with stuff like RunApp, OpenBrowser and FileName.exe to FileName Converter
